We all get there from time to time.

If our business site has a blog, we know we should post something every so often. Can’t have it getting stagnant. Gotta keep the content fresh.

Do you have pets? Did you find your Cats in the Dog House this morning? Sure your pest have nothing to do with your business. But people like cute pictures. And it shows a bit of the human side of your business. Me, I put most of my cat blogs on my personal blog. But they do inspire me from time to time.

Maybe a YouTube video helped you see some Lessons at the Watering Hole. If you learned from it chances are someone else will too.
